The paint stick markers are permanent (meaning, hard to remove once they have dried). They all discolor over time and to really remove most of them you will be digging around with a needle or pin into the stamps. Wax markers are temporary, good for taking pictures to document a stamp and come off easily when you are ready to put your pistols away. I would steer clear of the 'paint' type on any really nice pistols. (I have spent hours trying to remove some of that stuff, especially difficult in proof marks).
